Chapter 843 Especially Liu Bei

Majestic!

High-spirited!

At this moment, Yuan Shao was forced into a desperate situation. However, such a predicament did not knock Yuan Shao down at once. Instead, it allowed Yuan Shaochao, who had received decades of elite education from aristocratic families and was a powerful figure in the Han Dynasty, to perform at his best. In a very short period of time,

Within a short time, he found the only flaw in Wang Xuan's layout, and gave an impassioned speech that excited everyone present.

Yes, what are we afraid of?

Liu Bei seems to be powerful. He seems to have seized our loopholes and flourished in Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Jizhou. It seems that he has pushed his own side into a desperate situation. But in fact, his small strength has been greatly dispersed.

Those places were occupied by Liu Bei, but would occupying them necessarily have any effect?

Obviously not!

On the contrary, these occupied areas not only did not help Liu Bei in this war, but also greatly dispersed Liu Bei's few troops.

"Occupy" doesn't mean anything. It would take too much time to completely return these places to Liu Bei's use. In this war, Liu Bei will not be given this opportunity at all.

Those same aristocratic families in the occupied areas will try their best to delay time.

So, for Yuan Shao's side, the most important thing now is to defeat Liu Bei's 40,000 main force head-on.

Once Liu Bei is defeated, Guan Yu, Taishi Ci, Gongsun Zan, and Zhang Ji will all melt away quickly like snow in spring and become further nutrients for them. At that time, Yuan Shao can be called

The first prince in the world.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Yuan Shao with renewed confidence.

When Yuan Shao saw this scene, he laughed loudly and breathed a sigh of relief. It was so thrilling. Success or failure was just in that moment. Just now, if he showed a little decadence... the consequences would be disastrous.

The room full of famous counselors and ministers became enthusiastic again and began to discuss how to defeat Liu Bei with greater certainty. If there was a chance to invade Qingzhou and obtain the technologies in Liu Bei's hands, how, how...

And all the things that were in their minds just now were forgotten in an instant.

Xu You, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xin Ping, Xin Pi, Xun Chen... Why didn't so many famous officials with great ingenuity think of these things like Yuan Shao?

There is a saying that it is none of your business, but in other words, bystanders know better.

When things have not happened to them, few people are fools if they look at the problem from another perspective and are not affected by emotions.

However, once something happens to you, it will be different. Take Xu You as an example.

Doesn't Xu You know the harm of corruption? Obviously he must know.

Moreover, he is a well-known official in the world. He cares about his reputation very much and has a good family background. He spends his days mocking this person for being greedy and mocking that person for misbehavior. But if it were him, he couldn't help but be greedy for money.

He was furious because the judge wanted to punish him for being greedy for money, so he betrayed Yuan Shao and surrendered to Cao Cao, which led to Yuan Shao's defeat in the Battle of Guandu.

Doesn't Xu You know that being arrogant and rude can lead to death?

Historically, Qu Yi was finally killed by Yuan Shao because of this. Xu You saw it with his own eyes, but when he got to Cao Cao, he was still killed because he disrespected Cao Cao and was arrogant and rude.

People's decisions will be completely different from the perspective of a bystander than if it happens to them.

There is another reason why these people fail to think of this key point.

Each of them has family drag behind them, and the decision is not only about themselves, but also their wives, children, parents, and family relatives. Under many worries, people's judgment will be greatly reduced.

Looking at their backgrounds, Xu You, Xun Chen, Xin Ping and others are no worse than Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Liu Bei, or even higher.

Especially Liu Bei.

In terms of intelligence, they are no worse than these three.

Especially Liu Bei.

Liu Bei: "..."

Then why can they only be a counselor and not the leader of a party?

What's the difference?

The difference is that as counselors, when giving advice to the monarch, it is the monarch who makes the decision. They do not need to bear much responsibility, so they are very relaxed and have 100% wisdom. However, when a decision concerns their entire family.

, they will all be hesitant.

What's more, as a monarch, one decision is related to the fate of dozens or millions of people. One decision can make a power prosper or decline. Under such huge pressure, those who are not strong in the ability to withstand pressure will be driven crazy.

This is also the reason why there have been many crazy and absurd monarchs in history.

Therefore, these people can only be counselors, not monarchs. It is not about their background or intelligence, but the fundamental gap in their ability to withstand pressure and make decisions.

Therefore, they just had the idea that Yuan Shao was going to die and they should find a way out on their own.

Therefore, before the Battle of Chibi, there was a cry of surrender among Sun Quan's men.

After a heated discussion, Xu You and others agreed that as time goes by, Liu Beifang's advantage will become greater and greater. This increase is not an increase in military strength or hard power, but an increase in morale.

aspect.

As for Yuan Shao, as time goes by, the morale of the sergeants and soldiers in the army will also drop sharply when they hear that their hometown has been occupied. The gap is quite large.

In this way, what is before Yuan Shao is to fight decisively as soon as possible without giving Liu Bei a chance to breathe.

Crush Liu Bei with an upright army of 200,000.

"If Liu Bei shrinks back to Ling County and defends the city with 40,000 troops, even if our army has 200,000 troops, it will be difficult to capture Liu Bei in a short time, right?" Yuan Shao frowned and asked, this specific tactic is not

What he is good at.

"My lord, I'm worried about my business. If Liu Bei can't retreat, it will be better." Xun Chen laughed and said, wiping his long beard.

"Oh, you, if you have anything to teach me." Yuan Shao's eyes lit up.

"It's better to let Ziyuan come and answer my lord's doubts." Xun Chen didn't want to be in the limelight, so he went along with the flow and became friends with Xu You.

After Xu You nodded lightly to Xun Chen, he turned to Yuan Shao and said: "As my lord said, Liu Bei seems to be powerful, but in fact he is vulnerable. The reason why he is so powerful is just opportunism. Now is the time for him to

When the momentum is at its strongest, but because of this, he cannot be defeated. Once defeated, others will see the truth and falsehood."

"Standing back seems to be a good strategy to delay time, but it is undoubtedly a sign of weakness. If so, our army will not even need to attack Lingxian County."

"We only need to use 200,000 troops to prevent their escape, and at the same time recruit civilians to build another city wall outside Lingxian County."

"It doesn't need to be very tall, and there is no need to pay attention to the materials used. The purpose is just to trap the opponent. At that time, the situation will be reversed. After cutting off the internal and external contact between Lu Bu's army, whether it is dividing the troops to clean up Guan Yu, Gan Ning and others, or encircling the point to bring reinforcements, take the initiative

Everything is in the hands of our army, and the situation will be reversed immediately!"
